Pendant MoonThu, 21 May 2009 23:24:17 +0000http://www.limabeads.com/daily/?p=7860#comment-38509I have been photographing jewellery for two years now for my website, and I use natural light and a portable studio, basically it is a mini studio with two lightstands, and trypod and different colour backgrounds, it is great as it all folds away into a carry bag, wouldnt be without it, and can take it anywhere I go. I also use a camera which has super macro which is great for the close up shots and can also capture the real beauty of the stones. I cant say my photos are perfect but as they say practice makes perfect.

Seashellsally, I usually use natural light. We live in a basement apartment and our door is literally all window except for the frame. I photograph my items right next to that window. Or going outside would work just as well, just don't use direct, bright sunlight (as said above). It's way too harsh.
For the pics with the moss, I just used a bulb in a work light (the round metal clamp lights).Thanks everyone.

I am wondering if I am the only one struggling with the color balance from CFC bulbs. I'm having a really hard time correcting the CFC light. (I've tried in camera & editing programs.)
I have resorted to going outside till I can get some small swing arm lamps.Matt, thank you for all the great info! I have used some of it already & can’t wait for part II!
